Abstract (en)

[origin: US2006289142A1] A system and method for producing thin cast strip by continuous casting is disclosed. The system includes a twin-roll casting apparatus having a pair of casting rolls positioned laterally adjacent each other to form a nip between the casting rolls through which metal strip may be continuously cast. A drive mechanism of the system is capable of individually driving the rotational speed of the casting rolls in a counter-rotational direction to cause the strip to pass through the nip between the casting rolls. A control mechanism of the system is capable of varying an alignment angle between the casting rolls to reduce effects of eccentricity in the casting rolls on a profile of the strip produced by the casting rolls.
